Radiographic Image Enhancement by Wiener Decorrelation
The primary focus of the application of image processing to radiography is the problem of segmentation. The general segmentation problem has been attacked on a broad front [1, 2], and thresholding, in particular, is a popular method [1, 3-6]. Unfortunately, geometric unsharpness destroys the crisp edges needed for unambiguous decisions, and this difficulty can be considered a problem in filtering in which the object is to devise a high-pass (sharpening) filter. This approach has been studied for more than 20 years [7-13]
